His security was carrying the famous "Utopia" briefcase.

Travis Scott has recreated the iconic album cover of the Beatles' 1969 album, Abbey Road. He was photographed in London today outside of Abbey Road studios. The rapper lined up with various members of his security team, emulating the LP's artwork. One member of the security team even carried the famous UTOPIA briefcase in the photos, which Scott has been using to continually tease his highly-anticipated upcoming album.

He's been spotted various times with the briefcase in tow. Recently, behind-the-scenes photos from SZA's "SOS" tour that feature the briefcase were unveiled. A member of Scott's security team sat with the briefcase handcuffed to him, while Scott was pictured wearing SZA merch. He also brought it with him to the Cannes Film Festival last month. He attended the premiere of The Weeknd’s new HBO series with Lily-Rose Depp, The Idol. Some even claim that the rapper was seen peaking inside the briefcase during the event.

Another person who took a peak inside the UTOPIA briefcase recently is Scott's producer Mike Dean. He posted a photo alongside the opened briefcase on Instagram, leading fans to speculate on the album's release date in the comments. He also recently told his social media followers, “UTOPIA will be done with when Trav and I say its done. Let us cook.

Last month, Scott told Pin-Up magazine the true meaning behind UTOPIA. "Utopia is something that people feel is so far-fetched and out of reach, some perfect state of mind,” he revealed. He went on to say, "There are people who achieve utopia every day. They may not be the richest people with the dopest cribs, but it’s a utopia wherever they are, and that’s the most you can have.” Though the album is set to drop sometime this month, no official release date for UTOPIA has been confirmed.
